Rancang Bangun Aplikasi Smart E-Tourism Berbasis Android dengan Integrasi Virtual Tour 360° untuk Pemesanan Paket Wisata di Banda Neira

Abstract

The rapid advancement of information technology has had a significant positive impact on the tourism sector, particularly in improving information dissemination and services for tourists. However, the conventional method of providing tourism information often makes it difficult for visitors to obtain comprehensive details about tourist destinations, accommodation, transportation, and tour packages. This study aims to design and develop a web-based E-Tourism application that provides integrated tourism information while supporting online booking and payment services. The system was developed using the Waterfall software development model, which consists of the stages of requirements analysis, system design, implementation, testing, and maintenance. System testing was conducted using the Black Box Testing method to ensure that each system function operates according to user requirements. The results indicate that the application was successfully developed with features including tourist destination management, hotel information, ship schedules, flight schedules, tour packages, galleries, online transactions, online payment, virtual tours, and user management. Based on testing conducted on 20 test scenarios, all system functions achieved a valid status, resulting in a 100% success rate. Therefore, the developed application effectively enhances the delivery of tourism information, simplifies data management for administrators, and provides tourists with convenient access to information and online transaction services.
